Media and Incidents
Despite of all the drama that happened after the third edition, Metrocka HD has officially stated on 22 September 2016 that they would be participating in the fourth edition after all. The nationalist communities protested the MHD Building at the same night, called out to the channel to withdraw from the international contest to "protect the nation's dignity". The CEO Arthur O'Neill joined the crowd the following morning and stated that the channel must pay attention to such big international events such as Maia Song Contest to promote the nation to receive more tourists from the other nations. Eventually the crowd and the broadcaster compromised and the crowd disbanded with no harm.

In this edition, the ratings for the Maia Song Contest on Metrocka HD were the lowest up until to the date. Semi Finals of the Maia Song Contest were out of Top 10 in ratings, while the Grand Final barely made it to the Top 10, being 10th. A popular Metrockan magazine Metro Followers released a long article of 3 pages, stating that the current results are not helping the nation being promoted well and MHD should have taken a break for a couple of editions and reconsider participating in the event. It encouraged the same communities to make another call of withdraw. But once again, the CEO of the broadcaster released a statement, saying that the nation was going to participate in the next edition.
